In the last days I've played with a Pico W. I'm testing with Linux, PuTTY and picocom / cu , Telnet with PuTTY and standard telnet client.
PuTTY works the best and is just fast, also with Telnet and using the internal editor.
All these programs are VT100 capable. Now I found, that connecting Rx/Tx console line from another Pico to the Pico W and use this trivial code just works, like you are using the host itself:
SetPin gp8,gp9,com2
Open "com2:115200" As #1
print #1, chr$(149);
do
print #1, inkey$;
print input$(1,#1);
loop
The editor is correct and even Autosave works.
Edit: it works with all PicoMite and of cause also over serial PC connection instead of Telnet

Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.
